[0211] Representative examples of skin and scalp topical compositions, according to the present invention, were prepared in various forms using conventional methods (see, for example, Harry's Cosmeticology, Seventh Edition, Edited by JB Wilkinson and R J Moore, Longmann Scientific & Technical, 1982, Chapter 13 “The Manufacture of Cosmetics” pages 757-799), whereby each of these representative compositions comprise 20 weight percentages (% wt.) urea and 12 weight percentages of ammonium lactate, obtained using 17 weight percentages of a 70% ammonium lactate source solution. The components of each of these compositions are listed hereinbelow:
[0212] Composition 1—A Skin Foam:
GLYCERINE2.0% wt.ALLANTOIN0.2% wt.UREA USP 20% wt.CETYL ALCOHOL0.5% wt.VASELINE ™8.0% wt.Isopropyl myristate4.0% wt.MYRITOL 318 ™3.0% wt.TWEEN 60 ™1.0% wt.SILICON D.C.350 ™0.5% wt.VIT.E ACETATE0.1% wt.MONTANOV 68 ™1.5% wt.PHENONIP ™0.7% wt.AMYLUM RICE STARCH ™2.0% wt.PURASAL NH 70 ™* ...

Comparative Activity Tests
[0221] The activity of the compositions of the present invention in the treatment of dry skin was tested and compared with that of a commercially available dry skin product, containing ammonium lactate only. Thus, a skin foam composition that comprises 20% urea and 12% ammonium lactate (Composition 1 hereinabove) was tested for its activity in the treatment of dry skin according to the protocol described hereinbelow, whereby an Ammonium Lactate 12% cream, marketed by Clay Park Ltd., served as control.
[0222] Protocol: The study subjects were healthy volunteers, apparently free of diseases, aged 18 to 65, and having dry skin. The subjects had no history of skin or topical diseases and had no known sensitivity to any of the tested substances or to other components in the tested compositions.
[0223] Each volunteer was assigned a serial number by ISR.
[0224] Six volunteers that suffered from dry skin applied the tested preparations twice a day, on a daily basi...

Comparative Activity Tests
[0238] The activity of the compositions of the present invention in the treatment of dry skin was tested and compared with that of a commercially available dry skin product, containing urea only. Thus, a cream composition that comprises 20 weight percentages urea and 12 weight percentages ammonium lactate (Composition 4 hereinabove, also referred to herein as Moisturizing Complex Cream or MCC) was tested for its activity in the treatment of dry skin according to the protocol described hereinbelow, whereby an Urea 40% cream, marketed by Doak Dermatologics, a subsidiary of Bradley Pharmaceuticals Inc. (also referred to herein as Urea Cream or UC), served as control.
[0239] Protocol:
[0240] Fifteen (15) healthy volunteers, free of disease, aged 18 to 65, suffering from dry skin (xerosis) participated in this study.
[0241] The study consisted of a 14-days (two-weeks) treatment period in which a composition of the present invention (Composition 4, MCC) was appl...
